c13.s12.6

*Rev:* Within dotted border, Goddess (or queen?), with earrings, necklace and bangles, sitting on a couch with straight back. Two sides of the couch, as also its four legs of the *ṭapḍār* design, are clearly visible. R. leg of the goddess is folded under the couch and the l. leg is hanging down in its front. R. hand of the goddess is bent up and holds a flower of long stalk; the l. hand rests on the couch. Legend on the l., *Kumāragupta*. The second and third letters are doubtful, but they can hardly have been any thing other than *ma* and *ra* respectively.
